Deleted a handful of comments concerning possible censorship in Just-Dice trollbox, including accusations of "Chuck_Bartowski" being a 'nazi'.
Rebuttals seemed to suggest the supposed 'censorship' was justified.

Sorry folks, this needs to move to the Just-Dice thread.

For the record, navaman:
CLAM, as a network, obviously supports free-speech - we etch it into the block chain, after all.
Sorry, but concerns with Just-Dice need to be aired with dooglus and/or on the Just-Dice thread.

I am honestly surprised by the number of people who are opposed to doing anything to reduce the impact of future big digs.

Kinda restores your faith in humanity, don't it?

geeks are philosophical purists, until they're not.

It isn't philosophical purity necessarily, it is possible to reach the same conclusion on the basis of pragmatism about what it takes to succeed. When considering an artificial digital asset that is backed by nothing, reasonable people can disagree about how important stability of parameters and confidence (and confidence in stability of parameters) are to maintaining and growing long term value.

how can i claim clams

If you controlled BTC, LTC or DOGE in May of last year, you can 'claim' by:

1. Download the client here: https://github.com/nochowderforyou/clams/releases/tag/v1.4.17
2. Click File->Import wallet
3. Browse to your BTC, LTC or DOGE wallet.dat file.
4. Let the chain sync past block ~10,000

so say i had 890 btc, how much clams would get would it be 850

It's 4.6 CLAM per address that held non-dust amounts on that day in May 2014.

so 4.6 clams per one address

All people have self interest no matter what they tell, leaving digging open makes risk for all holders.

I would argue that most clams are being bought by people already in clam and not a whole new group. 

I think it's easy to underestimate the amount of interest drawn to CLAM when it's regularly in the top three traded coins by volume at poloniex.

The recent volatility is something day traders seem to love.

   Agreed about the Day traders, but they don't really care about the coin at all, just that it goes up and down. 

To stop digging, is about the same as bitcoin saying, we're going to end the block rewards, there are enough bitcoins out there and the miners are just dumping them and lowering the price. 
Bitcoin says something like that every 4 years only instead of stopping block rewards they halve them. Bitcoin needs block rewards because without them almost nobody would run mining hardware. Without block rewards the network would be easy to attack. Digging doesn't benefit CLAM's security at all, and in fact is a threat to security if a big enough cache of undug CLAMs is dug by a single entity.

    That was a poor analogy on my part.  The point was, Bitcoin is not going to change their initial distribution by cutting block rewards, forgetting network security.       

And yes I have a nice little cache of clams.       
I am honestly surprised by the number of people who are opposed to doing anything to reduce the impact of future big digs.

    To ME...   It would taint clams, and make me feel a little dirty...   Ever had tainted clams....   Smiley

I'm willing to roll with the punches of a big dig, but maybe we "should" be looking at the security issue.  Allow up to X% of the current active supply to be dug within Y time.  I don't think we should decrease the initial distribution, or stop digging completely.

Finally we are talking about this!

Yeah, nobody has been talking about the digger or removing digging for the last few months.

This might sound like a stupid question but is it still possible to dig clams? Like is there still CLAMS out there to be found? Also if so how would one go about finding them?

Over 14 million still available give or take

Recommended to make sure the wallet is (now) empty before doing this.



Yes good call

Absolutely!

If you owned, in your private wallet, DOGE, LTC and/or DOGE in May of last year:
1. Download the CLAM client software.
2. Click File->Import Wallet.
3. Browse to the BTC, LTC or DOGE wallet.dat file.
4. If you have CLAM you should see them once you've sync'd to block 10,000.
Oh nice thanks so much for answering that for me so quickly I appreciate that much Cheesy

Digging doesn't benefit CLAM's security at all, and in fact is a threat to security if a big enough cache of undug CLAMs is dug by a single entity.

I think this is only half correct.

Digging has the potential to help increase the decentralization of CLAM.

Of course, I think you are correct that it does have the potential to also be a threat.
